OOC: I want to contribute a lot of Mexican tradition Events on the server including hosting some mariachi nights and do many things that have to do with the Mexican culture or even hold upon some taco stands around the city and spread the love of our culture and food and traditions. I have many ideas I have in mind that I grew up around with in my life and want to share those experiences. Mainly the criminal side I want to focus on is mainly Drug Movement RP and Executions and run and gun type killings and video tapes of them being leaked to the public RP friendly wise like a live leak just like how the cartel does it and what the cartel motives are in the real world, I'm trying to stay away from restaurant RP shit or gun RP selling type shit. Money Drugs and Killing however it needs to get done is what I'm focused on with a little bit of Mexican eats and tradition if I could add on. Also following that I have a lot of progression in this faction of making a prison rp sub branch being the mexican mafia that will create rp from inside the pinta and outside in the city. Thanks hope my Application makes it.

-1 I would love to see another cartel, but the problem with current ones is they're not so in touch with their backstory and traditions, and seem kinda generic. So if you go back and flesh out a history beyond the current one (which looks like you skimmed wikipedia and added the NYC part), I will change it to a +1.

-1 personally i think the backstory could use some work right now it seems like the lowest effort you could have put into an app if you go back and make some changes by fleshing out the story i might consider changing this.
RE: Gulf Cartel - El Ruso - 02-14-2022
I know Kalata for some time and he is a serious guy so +1
RE: Gulf Cartel - Romullus - 02-14-2022
+1 good backstory, would be cool to have another cartel to interact with.
RE: Gulf Cartel - Bonito - 02-14-2022
+1
More non-Italian factions needed. I've known Kalata a while, good guy and on his previous time on Diverge brought some good RP/Events to the server.
RE: Gulf Cartel - IZO - 02-14-2022
+1 Would be great to have a new cartel to interact with especially a mexican. Backstory could use some improvememt but its good

I am Mexican myself, originally from Mexico so this project itself is pretty important to me and I want to make sure this application goes right. However to reply back to your reply about the cartel not being in touch about their traditions. The Cartel in real life literally only care about drugs and making money and power, they don't care how they make the money or how they are caught. That is the simplicity why its so hard to bring so much RP to the game to keep it PG13 of cartels because in real life they send kids to drive trucks loaded with kilos and behead baby's. That's why people really love to play under the cartel because of how violent their ways are but its super hard to contribute them in a game. To keep it real with you I grew up in Michoacán as a kid and if u want me to go deep with the RP as much as possible like Rated R type shit I can do that but I know it wont be allowed on the server or forums.

+1 Kalata is a real one can't lie and this faction has a lot of potential due to him having a lot of leadership experience.
